klmama Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Dc loves the current music instructor, and she's been a fine teacher. We've recently met someone with amazing instruction skills who we think can take dc a lot farther. Yet, how on earth do we leave the current instructor who has poured so much into dc? It feels like a personal betrayal. I know it's not, but it feels that way. How have you gotten past that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneStepAtATime Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Can I ask, is your child intending to major in music? What is the end goal for the lessons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneStepAtATime Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 That's really hard. No good suggestions but :grouphug: Hopefully someone else will have some brilliant way of handling this. Best wishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara in AZ Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 As a music instructor I will tell you that the teacher probably understands already her limitations and would encourage you to pursue the course that will best help your child to pursue their goals. We understand that no matter how wonderful the relationship is that everybody benefits from a change in perspective and a fresh approach. Most teachers would want their student to move on after a while, I promise. I know it's really difficult to make the first move, but I bet it will end up being easier than you think. Good luck! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
